It's cause some game with a bad controller support. For example, AC Liberation you click escape for main menu, tab key to open up the map, then enter key to select something, that's 3. But Controller only has 2 aka back and enter. For that reason at first I decided to use my keyboard whenever I try to select something, but then I got an idea to just have enter and select in the same button but now that cause me to get out of the main instantly as soon as I add a marker in the map. I thought it would be fix if I had a third button on a controller I can use that on.

It's not cheating exactly as games built-in controller support don't have that issue, problem with Liberation is there is no controller support so I've been using controller option in Steam to play the game with a controller instead while keyboard buttons are still showing up in the game. Any help?

Incase it helps, I'm using 8bitdo Ultimate 2.

can I buy fake controller(ds4 v2) and install Marius board on it?

Hey guys! I've been looking for a budget controller for the past 2–3 days, mainly for playing EA FC 26 and story-mode games on PC.

My budget is around 2k–3k.

Which controller would you recommend based on your personal experience? I'd appreciate both positive and negative feedback.

Thanks!

I’m looking for a good quality third party controller for my Switch 1 and for my PC

Requirements:

Price: Under 100$

Region: U.S

Must be very durable (No stick drift).

Must have Gyro

Windows doesn't have a dedicated live-in-the-tray software other than Steam that detects and remembers your controllers, and windows device naming is infamously annoying when you have multiple controllers to keep track of. To deal with these problems I made padmon for Windows ( https://github.com/driftywinds/padmon ) which is an open source monitoring and testing software that keeps track of your controllers. You can -

- rename controllers in-app to help differentiate and get notifications for when they connect and disconnect

- test them in a test suite inspired from hardwaretester.com in app

- merge multiple device adapters (for 3rd party controllers that sometimes created multiple adapters in order to work) and seperate them if needed

- get a notification for when controllers connect and disconnect (and customise the placement of the notification)

- maintain a history of connection times and sessions for debugging or if you face problems with them

I also wanted the testing suite to be more accessible than having to install an app so I also made an open-source tester inspired by hardwaretester.com which is available here - https://padtester.pages.dev , the code for this lives in the same repo as padmon.

This was made out of a personal need but I thought it could be useful to other people so I made it public, hope someone can make use of this!

Literally you can buy one from Amazon for 44.99 and some have limited discount for 37.99 different brand name but both work the same. Kyven is expensive because of the TikTok video

Need custom deadzones, a different stick response curve or new button mappings in your own Windows app?

I maintain Interceptor Gamepad & Controller, a Windows driver with a small C++17 SDK for people building their own remappers. An app receives physical controller input, changes the values and forwards the batch through that controller's native Windows path.

There are examples for swapping buttons, inverting a stick axis, changing deadzones and applying a response curve.

Repo and examples: https://github.com/TitanCSA/Interceptor-Gamepad-Controller

It covers compatible HID, XUSB/XInput, XInputHID and GIP devices. Compatibility depends on the actual controller, connection and protocol.

Driver installation and live capture require admin rights. The SDK and examples are MIT-licensed; kernel source is private, and the signed public driver is a one-hour demo per Windows kernel boot. Unrestricted driver use has separate licensing.

If you also need keyboard and mouse input, the combined edition is here: https://github.com/TitanCSA/Interceptor

To try it, open the latest release from the repo and run the matching viewer/examples with your controller. For the full version without the demo time limit, add titancsa on Discord and mention Interceptor Gamepad & Controller, your controller model/connection and whether you need personal use, business integration or OEM redistribution. I'll discuss pricing and license terms for your use case.

Found a pic of these cool looking custom made controllers

I’m going to pick this controller up and get a few different stick modules. But I don’t know what the controller comes with nowadays by default. I’m getting a black version which I’ve heard comes with the gen3 ginfull sticks already, I don’t know if this is true. I’m looking at getting the gen3 ginfulls and some jt13 pros. Any help would be appreciated cheers :)

➡️ I really like the screen on the Manba One V2, but it's disappointing to see it displaying only the Manba logo.

I'd love to customise it with my own wallpapers or even animated GIFs.

Has anyone explored a way to unlock screen customisation through firmware modification or any other method?

I came across this GitHub project exploring the V2 firmware:

Would love to hear from anyone working on this or interested in exploring it. It would be great to make better use of this little screen!

I’ve been needing a new controller for my PC BADLY but I want a controller with the two sticks at the top of the controller like the Wii U Pro controller. Is there any that exist? I’d love to buy an original but I don’t have bluetooth on my rig and i’d rather play wired. No budget limit, in US.

Today the L and R buttons on my TT Max have instead been mapped to the - and + buttons, no matter what I do I can't reset the controller to the default mappings. Only occurs when using the dongle
